You want to see Mahomes have to run around all game like he did today every game next season? Cause that's what will happen if peters is playing for us [Reply]
It makes a lot of sense, said it from the time this was posted on CP. He’s a cheap stopgap for them in case Fisher and/or Schwartz aren’t ready, and they don’t address OT early in the draft.
Andy knows him and if he’s worth bringing into the building. [Reply]

Best case scenario is he's 2021's Mike Remmers; and a vet mentor for Niang and Wanegho.
Very possible that we'll need him to start a few games early to hold the fort until Fisher is good to go.
He'll be cheap, and if he can pass a physical is a better player at 39 than Remmers ever was. [Reply]

He’s highly motivated too; didn’t get to participate in the Philly playoff run a few years back.
Again, I’ll just trust Reid if he thinks he’s a good guy to bring in. We aren’t asking him to come in and start 19 games or anything. I think you look to add high value players however you can and at the veteran minimum given our tackle situation, he is probably a solid value option.. [Reply]

I look at it like when we grabbed Suggs for the stretch run; Peters is insurance for the early part of the season just in case Fisher can't go and Niang isn't ready. If either of those things don't happen, then he's the super sub. [Reply]

Unfortunately, I believe this will be the case also, based on personal experience. Of course, everyone heals differently, but it took me 10 months to fully recover to the point where I did not favor my achilles. Of course I did not have access to the Specialists or rehab team that Fish will, but I was in very good shape at the time. No way I could I have pushed off it like he is going to have to do, virtually every time he steps on to the field. I'm no expert, or Dr., I'm just a guy who had the same type of surgery. [Reply]

Well, he's got the world's best doctors and trainers too.
I'm hopeful; but I think the team would be wise to have contingency plans. [Reply]

Exactly. We can't rely on peters to stay healthy a whole season. But he seems perfect to have a veteran presence who can fill in as needed. Ideally niang looks great and he wouldn't be needed at all. Seems way more valuable to overpay for 1 year of that than bring someone else in long term when we could have two excellent options by mid season. [Reply]
Speaking of old Philly linemen, I was about to ask on Jason Kelce -
The #Eagles and C Jason Kelce have agreed on a new deal for 2021, paying him $9M fully guaranteed at signing and potentially up to $12M, source said. He announced on Instagram he’s back for another season.
